Treatment Appropriate supportive and symptomatic treatment as indicated by the

patient's condition is recommended. In case of ingestion gastric lavage
should be considered in cases of significant ingestions only within the
first 2 hours. However, the application of activated charcoal and
sodium sulphate is always advisable. Forced alkaline diuresis and
hemodialysis may be considered. There is no specific antidote. In case
of convulsions, a benzodiazepine (e.g. diazepam) should be given
according to standard regimens. If not effective, phenobarbital may be
used. Contraindication: atropine. Oxygen or artificial respiration if
needed. Keep respiratory tract clear. ECG - monitoring
(Electrocardiogram). EEG - monitoring (Electroencephalogram).
Monitor: respiratory, cardiac and central nervous system. Keep under
medical supervision for at least 48 hours.
